General note

See also WRITINGS - POETRY - Miscellaneous poems submitted to THE NEW YORKER

A) Poetry: The largest subseries of WRITINGS, including published and unpublished works. The materials are arranged alphabetically
under a combination of descriptive title, published title, and author's title. Included in this subseries are materials for
Schuyler's Pulitzer Prize winning book The Morning of the Poem, as well as The Crystal Lithium, A Few Days, Freely Espousing,
and The Home Book: Prose and Poems, 1951-1970. Includes typescripts with holograph revisions, although there are abundant
examples of holograph manuscripts. A large portion of poems were originally organized by Schuyler in folders titled "miscellaneous."
These folders have been grouped in a sub-subseries as "miscellaneous collected poems" and reorganized alphabetically by title,
or for untitled poems, by first line. Although these folders contain some published poems, most are unpublished.

B) Prose: Includes materials for Alfred and Guinevere, Early in '71, What's for dinner?, and A Nest of Ninnies. The notes
and manuscripts for A Nest of Ninnies provide numerous examples of the method of Schuyler's collaboration with Ashbery. Also
includes shorter prose works, including prose fragments and leaves, which are located at the beginning of the subseries under
"miscellaneous prose."

C) Journal Articles and Reviews: Materials related to Schuyler's work for ARTnews during the late 1950s and early 1960s. These
materials include annotated typescript drafts for feature articles on artists, reviews of exhibitions, and pocket-size notebooks
with original notes created during assignments and interviews. Among the artists represented in the ARTnews materials are
Joe Brainard, Paul Georges, Fairfield Porter, and Ludwig Sander.

D) Diaries: Two early "diaries" are included here, one dated 1955 and the other undated. Recent Schuyler diaries are still
in the author's possession.

E) Notebooks: A variety of items written or collected by Schuyler, including poems, prose works, recipes, newspaper clippings,
and messages. The notebooks are organized chronologically. They often relate to a particular place (e.g. "Calais, Vermont")
or a time period.

F) Notes: Folders containing miscellaneous groups of notes.

CORRESPONDENCE

Scope and Content of Series

Series 1) CORRESPONDENCE: Because the bulk of the added correspondence dates from 1988 to 1991, when Schuyler was at the height
of his artistic powers, exchanges with important writers help reflect Schuyler's mature vision. Hundreds of widely-dated postcards,
also initially withheld, help document the quality and the activity of the friendship which surrounded Schuyler. Many of Schuyler's
correspondents are known painters and poets. Among the major correspondents are Tom Carey, Helena Hughes, Anne Dunn, and Joe
Brainard.

PHOTOGRAPHS

Scope and Content of Series

Series 3) PHOTOGRAPHS: Schuyler's unrecognized skill as a photographer shows itself in the prints and contact sheets which
comprise part of the photography series. The recurrence of certain photographic subjects--flowers, still lifes, gardens, landscapes,
sunlit rooms--reminds us that Schuyler's poetry, in which similar subjects predominate, is part of an encompassing aesthetic
of which each part is, in a sense, incomplete. The community of painters and poets of whom Schuyler was a part seems implicit
in Schuyler's work itself, which searches for a pictorial character independent from language. Pictorial arrangements more
often found in photography, or in painting, or even in domestic decoration or design, typify Schuyler's best writing, which
in turn sublimates them in delicate musical phrases.

Arranged in two subseries: A) Photographs Taken by James Schuyler; B) PhotographsTaken by Others.

MISCELLANEOUS

Scope and Content of Series

Series 5) MISCELLANEOUS: The miscellaneous series documents the charming, accessible side of the aesthetic which informs Schuyler's
writing. Newspaper clippings, old calling cards, tintypes of anonymous faces, Victorian stickers, flower cards, Christmas
scenes, calling cards, and other lovely objects, show us that conventional and even sentimental beauty may accompany the most
serious thinking, perhaps as its anodyne. Schuyler's cards and curiosities also speak of gay identity, with its sense of the
value of marginal things, its outcast status, and its necessary intransigence at social or cultural perimeters. The miscellaneous
series also contains beautiful gift books made by Joe Brainard, Kenward Elmslie, and Bill Berkson. Lavishly constructed birthday
cards attest to the persistence and fidelity of Schuyler's friendships. Schuyler's friendships signify gay sensibility in
another way, turning inevitable quarrels into comedies, and thereby maintaining a lasting sense of coterie. The miscellaneous
series and correspondence series together document the life of that community of friends which came to generate so much art
and writing.
